Grants land late. Restricted funds sit untouchable while payroll comes due. Your auditor wants schedules, your board wants plain English, and your funders want proof, all from the same set of books. We build the financial operation that answers every one of them, so your team can stay focused on the mission.
A business reports to its owners. You report to a board, your funders, your auditor, the IRS, your state charity regulator, and the public. Each one wants the same numbers cut a different way.
That’s the real difficulty of nonprofit finance. You need one clean set of books that can answer every one of those questions on demand. When a program officer asks how their grant was spent, when your auditor asks how you allocate shared costs, when a major donor asks what percentage goes to programs, the answer should take minutes. We build the accounting infrastructure that makes that true.

Clean schedules, tight support, fewer adjustments
Statements your board understands and acts on
Compliance is the floor. Your leadership also gets the financial clarity to grow the mission with confidence.
Every restricted dollar tracked from gift to release, with documentation that ties back to the donor agreement. No more year-end scrambles to reconstruct what was spent where.
Reconciled accounts, prepared schedules, and support your auditor can follow, all organized before fieldwork starts.
Budget-to-actual by grant, always current. Report to funders on their schedule and in their format, and spend less time proving compliance after the fact.
Know what each program actually costs once shared staff, overhead, and indirect costs are allocated honestly. Fund the work that’s working, and make the case for the rest.
Nonprofit cash flow is lumpy. Grants arrive late and campaigns land in December. We forecast around that reality so you know your true position months ahead.
Financial packages your board can actually read, with clear narratives, real variance explanations, and the context that turns a review into a decision.
Contribution and grant revenue recorded under ASC 958, restricted fund tracking, donor database reconciliation, payroll allocation across programs, and a monthly close that actually closes on time.
Budget development, multi-year financial modeling, reserve and liquidity policy, program sustainability analysis, and the strategic partnership an executive director needs ahead of board meetings.
Grant budgeting and tracking, indirect cost rate development, drawdown support, and Uniform Guidance compliance for federal awards, including Single Audit preparation when you cross the threshold.
We prepare the schedules, reconcile the accounts, and manage the auditor relationship start to finish. Then we make sure your Form 990 tells the story you want the public and your funders to read.
